Why is that only Democrats ever try to tell Israel to fuck off?
>Fearing Zionism could die among Democrats, many party leaders are explicitly breaking with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to try to stop anti-Israel attitudes from becoming a litmus test for next year's midterms and the 2028 presidential primaries.
>But privately, several tell CNN, they worry it may be too late.
>Last week's failed resolution to block new arms sales to Israel, supported by a record number of Senate Democrats and zero Republicans, was just the start.
>A new letter to recognize a Palestinian state is gaining signatures in the House. Devoted allies of Israel are speaking out against its government, brushing off whatever texts and phone calls they've been getting from the dwindling number of party voters or donors still standing steadfast behind Israeli actions in Gaza nearly two years after Hamas' October 7, 2023, attack.
>It's no longer just the far left rejecting Netanyahu's years of identifying more with Republicans. There is also a bitter backlash among many Democratic politicians, who have felt bullied by the Israeli government and the American Israel Public Affairs Committee, a lobbying group, and there's revulsion over the images of starvation and dying children.
